Awakening as the Academy Reject

Xiao Zhen was supposed to stay in his world. He had plans. Like... not getting roasted by a fireball ever again. But the universe said, “Nope,” and dumped him into the body of the most hopeless student in the kingdom’s top magic academy — a guy so pathetic, even the cafeteria rats didn’t respect him. New life? Check. Zero reputation? Check. Mysterious powers he doesn’t fully understand and might explode from? Double check. Now, with his definitely-not-his face and a name that makes people gag, Xiao Zhen must survive classes, dodge bullies with swords, fake his way through magical exams, and oh—accidentally charm the Crown Princess. She’s cold, untouchable, way out of his league… and might stab him if he flirts again. But jokes on destiny. Xiao Zhen is done being weak, and if he has to pretend to be a genius, outsmart some ancient monsters, and win the heart of the most powerful woman in the realm — he’ll do it with a grin, a wink, and a dramatic hair flip. Because this Academy Reject? He’s about to become everyone’s favorite overpowered disaster. Step aside, chosen ones. This clown has plot armor.”
